The  Kurdistan  Regional  Government  (KRG)  Joint  Crisis  Coordination  Centre  (JCC)  is  headed  by  a  Director  General  and  operates  under  the  direct  supervision  of  the  KRG’s Minister  of   Interior  and  is  mandated  to  support  a  coordinated  and  strategic  response to  crises  in  the  Kurdistan   Region  of  Iraq  through  an  “all  hazards”  approach.  The JCC is  a  governmental  civil  protection   institution  with  a  mandate  to  protect  the  core values,  population  and  critical  societal  functionality   of  the  Kurdistan  Region.  It  is primarily  a  facility  to  enable  key  stakeholders  to  take  decisions  on   matters  of  policy, strategy  and  strategic  resource  management  in  relation  to  natural  and  man-made  crises. The  JCC  is  composed  of  four  principal  directorates  including  Information  and  Data   Exchange,  Resource  Mobilization,  Crisis  Response  and  Management,  and  Finance  and   Administration.  UNDP is providing technical assistance to JCC through the project “Component One” under the Iraq Crisis Response and Resilience Program (ICRRP). The aim of the project is to help GoI and KRG establish and build institution and human capacity for effective coordination in crisis management through JCMC and JCC and their respective government networks.

 

As part of JCC capacity building, the project has taken initiatives to strengthen the operational capacity of the organization through further automation of business process. The Financial and Accounting Software will constitute the basic technological solution for most, if not all, operational and transactional requirements. The system should support all directorates and its multiple users.  Financial and Accounting System will be instrumental in ensuring efficiency,   accountability and transparency in the financial management and reporting. Hence establishment of an appropriate and functional system to cater the needs of the JCC is an urgent and important priority. Herein after UNDP will be termed as "Procuring Authority" in this RFP.
